Honestly, all review aggregates are kind of trash. It's crazy that we have stuck with either binary or 5 star ratings this whole time across the internet.

I had a product idea I have yet to make where you replace ratings with rankings. Instead of giving something a 1-5 review, you just answer a few quick questions whether something is better or worse than a listed alternative. You aggregate enough rankings and you can give everything a percentile score. The number is actually meaningful - a 70% means people on average think that it's 70% better than all ranked alternatives.

And you can't lie or influence a ranking as easily. "You think Rings of Power is a good show? Okay, but are you are actually going to rank it above The Sopranos?"

I love this idea and put it in practice (sort of) when working on prioritization. For example, say we want 15 features done, I compare feature A to the other fourteen asking "If I can only do A or X, which would I do?" with the winner earning a point, kind of like a Round Robin tournament. Then do the same for the rest on down and tally up the scores.

Hasn't failed me yet and if you do it as an org it helps with arguments down the line
